I belive the ONLY place to properly watch a World Cup match would be at a London pub at a friday at 9pm, completely drunk after 8 beers.

We'll have to play Brazil soon though *gulp*, 'cause they're in our pool. I don't think any Australian has illusions of beating them.


After seeing the pathetic game against New Zeland, with no soccer traditions at all, I wouldn't be surprised if Australia beated Brazil.

I belive England might take this one.

What we've done in the city I used to live, about 60 miles away from where I currently live, is to gather DS owners (and GBA owners too) into our Nintendo meetings, which were organized on this local nintendo forum I (seldomly) post. I strongly enncourage doing the same, while I play Mario Kart DS over the internet, it's not the same as having all 8 people playing it side by side - plus I get to see all the new games and play those, like New Super Mario Bros, Fifa 2006, Brain Age, check out the DS lite, and all that stuff. On a previous meeting, we had a representative for the local Nintendo office, and we are going to be "official"... Not the kind of thing I would be doing with a PSP. But don't worry, the PSP new model will offer a touch screen *sigh*...

I've seen a couple of DS lite recently, as I'm part of a Nintendo group that meet every month, and some have imorted it from Japan. It looks great, the screen has way more lightning on it, you can iluminate a room with it, not kidding. It's smaller, of course, the power plug is different, and the battery lasts longer. A good improvement over the old DS, but a bit too early I belive.

I agree! He was a silent, killing machine on Clone Wars! And on ROTS... he is Moe Howard. Same character, but different points of view, Gendy Tartakovsky and George Lucas. GL is not able to know what is cool and what is not, what works and what dosen't. He sort of knew it, by acccident, back in the 70s, but now...

Things I hate:

You know, right now, I pretty much hate the planet, the whole uh... planet. And all the things in it. I wish I had a Death Star to blow it to pieces. But then I would hate the Death Star, because it was made from things that came from Earth, so I would make it shoot a mirror so it would destroy itself. Then I would take my starship and fly to where rainbows come from. OK I had a REAL bad day today so I am kinda drunk and I took some Tylenol because my thumb is hurting SO badly and I thought Tylenols kicking in would do the trick, so I am in some sort of a mental confusion state here but... anyway...

A bunch of DVDs are laying around. An old knight asks for you to choose the O-OT.

Me: This msut be it! Such a beautiful photoshop cover! *opens the DVD, puts it on the 1080p 16x9 TV*

Me: NOOOOO It's not anamorphic! There are black canvas all around it! Nooooo *starts to get old and dies*

Knight: He chose... poorly. *shows a Dr. Gonzo set* This was the one! Now get out before I call the cops. Get out!

Ric, are you still planning on going to England? If you do let me know - I can arrange for some people to show you around.


Uh no, unfortunally, not any more. Might be in either Chicago, Washington DC or Toronto soon. But things just keep changing, so I'm not sure anymore.

I WILL be in Japan from July 1st to July 15th, 2007, though. That is confirmed.

That sort of thing.


Always have an old magazine around, so when those moments happen, you can throw it against a wall while screaming at the top of your lungs.

BUT! Something tells me Nintendo will sell a LOT of spare wiimotes.
